Chapter 246 Negotiation
Jiang Feng said as he ate, "He's still sleeping. Don't worry, Han Linsheng's demon poison has been cured, and Teacher Mo's internal injuries have been healed. Except for Qiu He who may be in a coma for a few days, everyone else is fine."
Seeing her inconvenience, Garlic replaced her spoon with another one. "Senior, tell me what you want to eat and I'll get it for you. There's also soup."
"Thank you." Meng Yu glanced at her, then drank a mouthful of the clear soup with a spoon, and felt a warm feeling in his stomach.
Meng Yu looked around and saw that only Lin Yan, Suan Tou, Jiang Feng and Ye Yu were eating at the table.
Near the cave entrance, there was a strange man sitting and reading a book.
In the circular beast den, there are three shapeshifting beasts, white, purple and orange, sitting on the back of the giant firefly. They are listening to Bai Cai telling stories.
Meng Yu looked at Jiang Feng in confusion and asked, "Where are Teacher Qi and Teacher Yan? Why can't I see them?"
Jiang Feng replied: "They are not here. We will find them soon. Let's eat."
Meng Yu took the spoon, was silent for a long time, and then started eating.
At noon on the fifth day of being trapped in the forest, three teachers from the North Sea Research Institute came to the cave in a panic to meet them.
Luo Qingfeng and others slept for a day and finally recovered as before, becoming full of energy and vitality.
Han Linsheng stayed beside Qiu He, holding her hand and whispering softly: "Qiu He, wake up quickly, wake up quickly."
Garlic and Cabbage placed a few spirit stones at the entrance of the tent and left quietly.
Now, people can be seen everywhere in the cave. Suantou checked the injuries of Mo Bufan and Meng Yu, gave them a few instructions, and went to keep accounts with Xiaolan.
Soon, everyone sat around the big table, discussing what to do next.
The only people left on the spaceship who have not been found are Qi Siji and Yan Hei.
Liu Jingyuan was the first to suggest, "Why don't we send a team out to look for him first? Qiu He will wake up in two days. Once everyone has rested and recovered, we can start our return journey."
Jiang Feng sat opposite Lin Yan, in a row with Ye Yu, Suan Tou, Luo Qingfeng, and Liu Jingyuan.
Speaking of Qi Siji, he has half the say, "Based on my understanding of Teacher Qi, he and Teacher Yan may be on their way back."
Yan Hei might look for them, but Qi Siji is quite confident in Lin Yan, after all, he was taught by him personally.
Jiang Feng didn't dare to guarantee anything else, but in terms of ability, Qi Siji was more knowledgeable than Lin Yan.
Lin Yan, who had the other half of the say, also agreed with Jiang Feng's opinion, "I think so too."
Qi Siji most likely went back, and they were most likely to meet on the way back.
After Jiang Feng and Lin Yan said this, Liu Jingyuan gave up his plan to find someone, but he was still a little worried.
Their team had experienced being besieged by monsters and had fought many desperate battles with ten-thousand-year-old monsters. If Lin Yan had been slower, they would have surely become food.
Luo Qingfeng thought for a moment and asked, "Then shall we go back directly?"
silence...
No one answered.
The situation of the battle between monsters and beasts is unclear, and no one knows whether they will be killed by monsters all over the mountains if they go out.
Luo Qingfeng looked around awkwardly, and everyone was silent.
At this moment, Lin Yan propped his chin up and said weakly, "Let's rest for two days first."
Luo Qingfeng asked: "How do you say that?"
"I'm going to tell you something terrible."
Everyone else's eyes turned towards him.
Lin Yan said, "I have a map of the Tianluo Forest."
"Ah? How is this possible?!" Jiang Feng was shocked for a moment and almost thought he had heard it wrong. He had been trapped in the Tianluo Forest before, and there was no complete map of the Tianluo Forest to this day.
Luo Qingfeng questioned: "Lin Yan, did you buy a fake map?"
A teacher from the research institute, not familiar with the situation in the Tianluo Forest, asked doubtfully, "Having a map? Isn't that a good thing?"
At least in his eyes, their chances of escaping the forest had increased.
"correct."
Others reacted.
Lin Yan said slowly, "According to the map, this cave is located near the center of the forest. It may take half a month or even longer to return to Tianluo City."
Liu Sheng frowned, "What takes so long?"
Luo Qingfeng smiled and said, "It's definitely different to ride a spaceship and walk."
Jiang Feng looked at Lin Yan and asked, "Lin Yan, aren't your leaves very fast? We can fly in the sky."
Lin Yan said calmly, "I'm calculating the time it takes to fly. If I rely on people to walk, it will take several months, and I may not be able to go back even when school starts."
"Ah this..."
Jiang Feng pinched his temples with both hands, his face full of worry.
Meng Yu asked, "It's so far, is your map real?"
"I hope it's fake more than you do, but if it were fake, Senior Sister wouldn't be sitting here talking to me right now."
Meng Yu was suddenly choked.
After a long silence, Mo Bufan said, "Flying leaves may not be safe. Once we set off, we must be prepared, right?"
Lin Yan nodded, "Yes, Teacher Mo."
"Then let me tell you the problem first."
Lin Yan nodded and said, "The flying leaf itself is just an ordinary leaf, very fragile. I added talismans and formations to it."
"There are three types of talismans: high-level concealment talismans, mid-level protection talismans, and low-level sound-isolating talismans. The formation is based on my homemade transformation array, with teleportation array, tracking array, protection array, and sword array superimposed on it. It's very safe within the forest, but everyone must first understand the center of the formation. Otherwise, once the formation is activated, I won't have the energy to control the flying leaf and save people."
"Maintaining the formation requires a large amount of spirit stones. We need to take turns flying in the sky to guard against attacks from large monsters. I also need to rest, so I have to land in the forest for one day every three days. That's about it."
"Goose, goose, goose," Luo Qingfeng chuckled, "This sounds safer to me than in Tianluo City."
Lin Yan:?
Liu Jingyuan raised his lips and agreed, "Indeed, I don't think we need anyone to keep watch at night anymore."
Lin Yan sighed and said, "Senior, stop joking. The inner area of the forest is more dangerous than you think."
She didn't want to risk her life to test whether it was safe or not.
"It's better to be cautious," Jiang Feng said seriously, "We feel safe on the spaceship. If something goes wrong, no one will be able to escape."
The three research institute teachers nodded repeatedly and agreed, "That makes sense."
At this moment, Meng Yu suddenly pointed at someone reading at the door and asked, "What about him..."
Lin Yan suddenly remembered something. She had not yet arranged Xuan Ye's identity.
Damn it, the property is going to be exposed.
He quickly said, "I have my own arrangements for him."
Luo Qingfeng looked at Jiang Feng and asked doubtfully, "I never had the chance to ask, is he a teacher at your Nanheng Academy?"
Jiang Feng was stunned.
He woke up in the cave and this Xuan Ye was there, not noticing who he was.
Luo Qingfeng couldn't understand his expression and asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Feng blinked, turned to look at Xuan Ye, then looked back at Luo Qingfeng. After a long pause, he said, "You may not believe this, but I don't know him either."
Lin Yan was just about to make up an identity for Xuan Ye when Ye Yu slapped his forehead and said, "He is Lin Yan's contracted beast."
"What?!!"
Jiang Feng was surprised.
Lin Yan sighed in his heart, it was difficult to deal with the aftermath.
Everyone looked surprised.
"Yes," Luo Qingfeng suddenly remembered that he had asked Xiaolan yesterday, "Xiaolan said that he was Lin Yan's contracted beast. I forgot about it."
"No, wait a minute..." Liu Jingyuan's mind froze as he recalled Lin Yan's information.
They were all running for their lives yesterday, and they were extremely tired. In addition, Lin Yan was followed by several transformed beasts, so they didn't notice the outrageousness of the fact that Lin Yan had a contracted beast.
"Lin Yan, you're a support, training in formations. You have four monsters with similar attributes, but you only have one attribute, Falling Leaf. How can you possibly contract a monster?"
Lin Yan scratched his head, "Uh... this..."
How to explain it?
She certainly couldn't explain the whole story clearly, because Xuan Ye's identity could be used to scare people, and the story of the contract between her and Xuan Ye might not be explained clearly even if she talked about it for a whole day.
Seeing that something was wrong, Ye Yu whispered to Jiang Feng, "Don't you know?"
Jiang Feng tried hard to recall, but he couldn't figure out when Lin Yan had gained another attribute.
Seeing that he didn't reply, Ye Yu turned to ask Suan Tou: "Do you know?"
"I know." Garlic nodded.
Ye Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Garlic said suddenly: "Maybe only me and I know that you are dead."
"Hiss!" Ye Yu took a breath of cold air.
"Is he a demon beast?" The teachers at the research institute all looked at Xuan Ye. "He looks too much like a human. There are no flaws."
Ye Yu muttered to himself…I’ve lived for a million years.
Suantou noticed that Lin Yan's expression was not right and whispered to him, "Speak less."
Ye Yu suddenly turned around and shut up.
Luo Qingfeng laughed and said, "You Nan Heng guys are really good at hiding it. You brought in such a talented person, a junior student who was able to pass the screening of the United Academy and become a special team member. If you played, we would definitely be the first in the representative competition."
Lin Yan was embarrassed and said modestly: "I exaggerated."
Mo Bufan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Lin Yan, what kind of monster is he?"
Lin Yan said: "Black Leaf Fleshworm."
The Black Leaf Fleshworm is not a very powerful monster, so there is no need to hide it.
But this answer also surprised Mo Bufan, and he praised: "This kind of monster likes to hide in trees and is extremely difficult to find. Not only did you find it, but you also contracted a transformed one of this size. Very good."
Jiang Feng kept staring at Lin Yan's wrist, and no matter how he looked at it, he could only see...
Lin Yan caught Jiang Feng's gaze from the corner of her eye and immediately tucked her hands into her long sleeves. She looked at everyone and said with a soft smile, "Can everyone pretend that you didn't hear what Ye Yu said?"
Meng Yu said casually: "No, I'm not deaf."
Lin Yan's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes suddenly darkened. He said softly, "Then none of you here will be able to leave the forest alive."
Everyone:! ! !
Meng Yu suddenly restrained his expression, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart. He thought that Lin Yan was relying on the monster to scare them.
But Lin Yan's words caused a storm to rise in people's hearts.
Who is Lin Yan?
A junior student, at most she was only fifteen years old.
They had been with her for almost a month and thought they had some understanding of Lin Yan, but it seemed that they were the ones who were seen through.
Meng Yu still disdains Lin Yan's threatening words.
But before anyone could come out to resolve the situation, Lin Yan seemed to have heard their thoughts and said seriously, "I'm not kidding. Of course I won't kill you all directly, but I won't help you leave the forest anymore."
"Lin Yan, don't talk nonsense." Jiang Feng said angrily and gave her a look, indicating that she should take back her words quickly.
Lin Yan remained calm.
Jiang Feng's face looked a little ugly. He turned around and said, "Teacher Mo, the three teachers from the North Sea Research Institute, you all know that Lin Yan is just a junior student. You don't need to listen to her nonsense."
Mo Bufan responded with a smile, but did not say anything. He knew very well that Lin Yan had this ability, because if the man reading the book took action, everyone would die in an instant.
The three teachers from Beihai didn’t know what Lin Yan’s reputation was like before, but the fact that the Jun family was almost bankrupted by her was enough to show that Lin Yan was not as innocent as she seemed.
Luo Qingfeng and Liu Jingyuan looked at each other, feeling a little worried. After all, they knew that Lin Yan had the title of "Treasure House of Heaven and Earth". If not for the future, they had to make friends with him for their lives now.
Liu Sheng folded his arms and said, "How can we escape the forest together like this? Why not fight first?"
Garlic said speechlessly: "Senior, you can't help. Can you please not be as stupid as Senior Meng Yu and cause so much harm to others?"
Liu Sheng was a little exasperated: "You!"
"Who are you calling stupid?" Meng Yu said with a tense expression.
Garlic questioned, "Are you junior students? And you're fighting?"
She sneered, "Can't you understand what Lin Yan means? Is it so difficult to swear an oath?"
Then he swirled his fingers around his head, shrugged, and said, "I, Garlic, swear by the laws of heaven and earth that I will not reveal the fact that Lin Yan has a contracted beast to anyone, otherwise I will be condemned to eternal purgatory and die a miserable death."
Liu Jingyuan murmured doubtfully, "What does the finger-head gesture mean?"
Luo Qingfeng whispered, "It implies that we are crazy, mentally ill, and sick."
"Eh?" Liu Jingyuan turned his head suddenly and looked at her in surprise.
Garlic: "Senior Yeyu, do you want to go back with Lin Yan, or go out and feed the monsters?"
"I want to go back." Ye Yu immediately understood and raised his hand to swear.
The others found it very strange; of course they knew about swearing an oath.
Seeing their indifference, Lin Yan said, "The others want to walk back to Tianluo City on their own."
There are thousands of years old monsters outside. If you go out, you will die.
They were finally rescued.
"No, no," Luo Qingfeng also swore.
Afterwards, Liu Jingyuan and the three teachers from Beihai, Meng Yu and Liu Shenggu Ying also accepted it because they had all suffered a lot in the forest.
Mo Bufan said calmly: "I don't know why you want to hide it, but you are my savior."
He also swore not to reveal it.
Only Jiang Feng is left, he is Lin Yan's half-teacher.
Jiang Feng's mouth twitched: "If I say no now, will you throw me out immediately?"
Lin Yan suddenly said, "You don't have to."
"Ahem," Jiang Feng instantly became cocky and straightened his appearance.
He said that he was half of Lin Yan's teacher, and his status must be two or three levels higher.
Lin Yan was too lazy to pay attention to him. Didn’t Jiang Feng know enough of her secrets?
"Everyone has some little secrets. You just need to know that Xuan Ye is one of us and will not hurt you."
Jiang Feng asked in confusion: "Why can I only see one of your attribute rings?"
Lin Yan said indifferently: "You're talking too much."
Jiang Feng: “…”
Ye Yu could hardly suppress the smile on his face.
Luo Qingfeng and Liu Jingyuan looked at each other. It seemed that Lin Yan had given up his murderous intentions. The two of them smiled faintly in agreement.
